Fruits
“I put in windows with arches. I drew flying buttresses. I hung great doors. I couldn’t stop. . . . So we kept on with it. His fingers rode my fingers as my hand went over the paper.”
- Raymond Carver, Cathedral
Working intuitively, the artist uses pins, beads, threads, water, and fire on fruits to make sculptures and videos, to engage and intervene in the inner landscape of the bodies of fruits.
She locates the process in the fruit bodies as an autonomous system of material organization, while also, with her own engagement, as a medium of encounter and entanglement. The bodies contain passive and active assemblies of life, what Wolinska and Sandstrom have called a body in the Future Body of Work “informed by multiple temporalities.” she continues, “Our positions in the world and our relationships with ourselves and others are defined and transformed from within the radiant body.”
The videos of fruits can be read as a rebirth of devoted emotions, without a script.
